  1. Priced out of Melbourne, an Australian couple bought 1.5 hectares in Tasmania for $330,000; in 2022 they began a recycled bottle Earthship and completed the home nearly three years later for $880,000

  4. Sometime ago I complained that there weren't enough #earthship posts on Masto. What to do? What we always do. Do it yourself. Enjoy!

    Il y a quelque temps, je me plaignais qu’il n’y avait pas assez de publications sur les #earthships sur Masto. Que faire ? Ce qu’on fait toujours : s’en occuper soi-même. Bonne découverte !

  9. So, I saw a piece about the #Taos #Earthship community late last night on #VeryLocal (unfortunately, I can't find any video link as yet). However, I did find a piece from 2024 about them...

    "This summer’s extreme heat and the demand for air conditioning are putting a big strain on the electricity grid in many parts of the nation. But for more than 40 years, a pioneering architect in New Mexico has been building a unique kind of home that can be heated and cooled without using any electricity at all. Special Correspondent Megan Thompson reports."

    > "specific topics or general directions?"

    Apologies I'm an engineering ignoramous, but on this note, I'd be fascinated to see a variant of the "earthship home" design with - instead of rammed-earth-tyre walls - concrete block walls. I think planners might find this easier to accept, among other reasons for trying it. What I can't get my head around is how to have an earth-berm in contact with the building without it getting damp. The design evolved in desert climates where this isn't a problem. Anecdotes from the UK suggest damp is a problem with the design when implemented there.

    Some folks won't like the idea of swapping in concrete to replace the tyres; I'd just point out that an earthship made with concrete is better than one that isn't made at all, and sadly that's where we're at in most housing developments.

    At any rate, wherever you direct your intellect, good luck! LLMs are probably your friend for filling out grant proposals without going mad ;) many free ones eg.: www.duck.ai

My newest #investment is in GeoShip, which is a company that starting this year will be selling #earthship homes made from #bioceramics that mimic bone. #Earthships are the most #sustainable, low cost way to live. They naturally heat and cool the space with little #energy consumption. They are the most #environment friendly way to live. #environmentmastodon

  33. @jupitersigh I just remembered another book I have that talks about many of the same principles, The Earth Shelter Handbook. It was published in 1980 so the section on building codes is probably ancient, but the core concepts hold up when it comes to earth structures! And the bonus, this one’s on the IA.

    But doesn't mean you can't find crimes there.
